Day #7 Seuss Inspired Flower’s Teabowl - 1 LB of Clay 25 Ways Stretching my creativity doesnt always mean abstract objects with random texturing or forms. I think I’m searching for that “Perfectly Imperfect” ... it’s all about deciding what part of a piece will be made as perfect and imperfect. WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS: I think the teabowl form turned out real nice. Holding it felt good in my hand and I know after the shrinkage of the clay it would fit even better. To me, this was the “perfect” part of the piece. “Imperfect” came with embellishment. I had a picture in my head of what I wanted the flowers to look like (they really didn’t turn out as I envisioned..lol) but they did spur on ideas for future pieces so they served their purpose! Since one of my favorite childhood books is “Oh the Think’s You Can Think” (if only you try…) I wanted to think up an abstract flower theme much like his artwork. THE ATMOSPHERE: Calm while throwing and hurried to finish …but a fun focused finish! I realized that once I have the perfect part of the piece made, I relax into the imperfection that allows my creativity to flow. Because I release all expectations and accepting that myself and the piece will not be “perfect” as a whole it’s easier and more natural for me to embrace and love it! Hope you enjoyed today’s piece and I’ll be back at it again tomorrow!! Thanks for watching and go ENJOY SOME CLAY!
